Fiberglass floors rot from the inside, meaning water leaking from above. They do not rot from road spray. If you keep wood dry you will have no problem. There are many 30 year old
fiberglass trailers with no rot. Their owners kept an eye on window and roof vent seals.
Sleeping near pressure treated wood gives me some concern, not lots, but some. We keep our roof vent open all the time except when towing, and often open windows as well to avoid indoor air pollution. OTOH treated wood is probably of more concern to the folks cutting and installing it than the campers in the trailer.
Finally treated wood is quite a bit heavier than the plain stuff.
